Making your Internet Fast

Windows uses 20% of your internet bandwidth by default! Microsoft reserve 20% of your available bandwidth
for their own purposes (for updates and interrogating your machine etc..). Here's how to get it back.
Click Start>Run>and type gpedit.msc. Hit enter.
Then
Local Computer Policy >Computer Configuration>Administrative Templates>Network >QOS
Packet Scheduler>Limit Reservable Bandwidth
Double click on Limit Reservable bandwidth. It will say it is not configured, but the truth is under the 'Explain'
tab:
"By default, the Packet Scheduler limits the system to 20 percent of the bandwidth of a connection, but you can
use this setting to override the default."
So the trick is to ENABLE reservable bandwidth, then set it to ZERO. This will allow the system to reserve
nothing, rather than the default 20%. Works on XP Pro and 2000. Enjoy your full speed internet connection.
